Is the "new MI" something the "New Math"?

Must be they've decided to change the underlying architecture again.
Would be wonderful to hear about it in detail like the old S/38
concepts book did (horizontal, vertical, etc.)

The crux of my question was this ... will ILE programs have
to be regenerated (as they did with the CISC to RISC
conversion), or will only OPM programs have to be regenerated?
